Great North Swim

12 June 2026

Taking place in the stunning Lake Windermere, The Great North Swim brings thousands of people together for a unique weekend of open water swimming, community, and Lake District beauty. Whether you’re tackling your first open water swim or going all-out for a 10K, there’s a place for you in the water. Expect a fully supported course, a festival atmosphere, incredible views and a shared sense of achievement.

Access to legal advice should be equally available to everyone, no matter their circumstances. The money raised by our swimmers will go a long way to support free legal advice charities across London and the South East.
